In cold winter, when the outdoor and indoor temperatures are low, the water temperature will be relatively low. At this time, when it is used to soak the bird's nest, it is difficult for water molecules to enter the bird's nest tissue, and the time for soaking the bird's nest will be longer. So if necessary, warm water can be used to speed up the soaking time. When the water temperature is about 40 degrees, the foaming rate and edible taste of bird's nest after soaking are basically unaffected.
